Space-saving interconnect systems

10 June 2009 Interconnection

Samtec’s new high-speed Razor Beam interconnect systems are designed to maximise PCB real estate with their slim, ultra-fine pitch, low-profile designs.

These space-saving systems are currently available in super-fine 0,4 mm pitch (ST4/SS4 series) and self-mating 0,635 mm pitch (LSS series) designs. A 0,5 mm pitch (LSHM series) system for parallel, perpendicular and coplanar applications is also in design.

Razor Beam connectors are well suited for high-speed applications with performance up to 10 GHz at -3 dB insertion loss. The cost-effective contacts are ideal for high-speed and rugged applications featuring undercut retention notches that increase the withdrawal force and provide an audible click when the contacts engage. The systems are available in a choice of stack heights from 4 mm to 6 mm for the ST4/SS4 series and from 6 mm to 12 mm for LSS series and LSHM series.

The LSS series includes a standard friction lock for increased normal force and an optional locking clip, while the ST4/SS4 series is available with an optional latching system.
